Think back to High School. Do you recall the introduction of letters in math class. Math was so simple before the letters began appearing in the problems. This is the common complaint of my students, however, by using my whiteboard I can easily show my students how to manipulate equations and solve for the variable values. This visual explanation becomes a bit more critical as the level of difficulty in math increases.
I have seen success in my PreCalculus class, when I am able to project while working through problems as a class and able to incorporate various colors for visual mapping. In the Spring, when we switched to remote learning, my ability to work through examples was limited by what I could do using MS Word. It led to long wait times and loss of student engagement. The use of an iPad would allow me to write on the tablet as if it were a whiteboard. I could easily change colors, erase and copy, all while presenting my screen to the class. This Virtual Whiteboard would allow me to simulate my in person class environment and increase student engagement.
